Boss 302 Intake Manifold, Fuel Rail Covers, Sound Insulators.

I'm in the process of putting the Boss 302 manifold on my GT, I've noticed on-line, that there is a fuel rail cover/sound insulator that came stock on 2013 Boss 302's and it will fit a 2013 GT. It's made of foam and I've seen prices of $115.00 to $165.00, VERY expensive for a piece of foam and personally, I think it's FUGLY!. Has anyone gone a different route? is there anything like a polished aluminum cover or even chrome?
There has to be another way. I may go to my local fabricator to see if he can come up with something. Your thoughts, Ideas please.

Nope that is the only cover that I know about. Without it, everything looks FUGLY.

No offsense take my man! All the fuel rails and vacuum hoses surrounding it make the area cluttered and nasty looking IMO. Something is needed to cover those up to give it that clean look.
